2025-11-17.2_fractal fragmentarity

fragmentarity is a fractal ontology.

fractals are a key metaphor/unit of fragmentary ontology.

fragments, the fundamental relational units of fragmentarity, are always fractal. they always contain and are fragments of other fragments.

fragments are never self-contained nor individual. and this is exactly what makes them real.
